Gene

Eif2ak3

Species
Mus musculus
Symbol
Eif2ak3
Name
eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3
Synonyms
  • AI427929
  • expressed sequence AI427929
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables identical protein binding activity; misfolded protein binding activity; and protein kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including PERK-mediated unfolded protein response; protein phosphorylation; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intracellular signal transduction; regulation of apoptotic process; and regulation of primary metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and endoplasmic reticulum quality control compartment. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; eye; liver; pancreas tip epithelium; and tooth. Used to study Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Wolcott-Rallison syndrome and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human EIF2AK3 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant mice develop exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and progressive diabetes mellitus. They are growth retarded, hyperglycemic, exhibit increased cell death in the pancreas, have decreased numbers of pancreatic beta cells and about half diebefore weaning. [provided by MGI curators]
